Staff presented a multi‑part packet. For 14941 (the former blacksmith shop), staff reported vinyl siding and vinyl window replacements had been installed without LPC review; staff recommended returning windows to true‑divided or simulated‑divided wood sash in the original configurations, reopening certain historic openings, and replacing incompatible doors with historically appropriate wood doors. Commissioners asked the applicant to submit separate “before” and “after” drawings showing exact historic dimensions and restoration specifications rather than combined sketches; the commission voted to have the applicant return with those detailed drawings before a final decision on the blacksmith shop elements.

For the primary dwelling (14943), staff described a recently constructed 18‑foot hyphen connecting the house to the garage and other ex post facto alterations. Commissioners said the hyphen appears out of scale and incongruous with the stone house and advised the owner to consider removing the connector or redesigning it so the garage reads as a separate or compatible accessory building; the commission voted not to approve the hyphen/garage connection as presented.

For landscape and hardscape (14941/14943/14945), the commission approved removal of excess asphalt and installation of a bluestone walkway and repairs to the existing dry‑stack stone retaining wall, provided the paving be reduced to restore a greater amount of grass and that stonework be rebuilt in kind. Commissioners also reiterated earlier concerns about building stabilization (missing metal roof panels) and asked the owner to address urgent maintenance to avoid demolition by neglect. Staff will provide a detailed list of required drawings and specifications to the applicant.

Votes: commission voted to defer/require resubmission for the blacksmith shop details; voted to reject the hyphen/garage as proposed; and approved the landscape/hardscape plan conditioned on restoring green space and matching stone work.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Baltimore County Landmarks Preservation Commission Meeting, July 10, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","Baltimore County’s Landmarks Preservation Commission split its decision on correction work at the Rodney House properties: it deferred formal approval for blacksmith shop exterior restorations pending detailed drawings, rejected the existing hyphen connection to the garage, and approved limited hardscape changes conditioned on restoring grass and matching stone materials.","taxTitle","Baltimore County, Maryland","taxId",3882,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6519178,"Commission rejects proposed garage at Warren property; asks for redesign",813,3745000,4558000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5374249-ccdd9f379dbfa051e8fb580d627efed0&start=3745&end=4558","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5374249-ccdd9f379dbfa051e8fb580d627efed0/thumbnail_3745000.jpg","/articles/6519178/Baltimore-County/Maryland/Commission-rejects-proposed-garage-at-Warren-property-asks-for-redesign","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6519178-f7c00fbd773ae9a066f3b6747cd4994d/orig.mp4?Expires=1773328866&Signature=nbPjLTC01Y7frihpldL8G2-DfD2eOEZKH3IsRKTVbRNNbSipuSqVT82B5Jb6NUfEFwXB5cU0OLgd7jctKWx1XdYnoRLFFNMBL92SxZx5Fj0fnYGQ1zgAGQTggaf89~kLsDKlZZdtOWKimhKFIBBjoGxfM6zljp1m0lV6yERVRqw9IVs5RR1T-oqrF9Y1OIXfYaUS0ZW~BjO1gPu~AD8BRCNawqP4oWoDKrsFliu~Kvbd0vQ4IYzGhbvcSjtcx7ejzxA8RDdOZ8AuFwGi27OOKvNt7373l7koiGfIC2NSg-9HFJ307Cp3yLA0p-pCMBksn8PTy36~yZthTKkOt5a1SA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Baltimore County Landmarks Preservation Commission voted to deny the current proposal for a new detached garage at 112 McLaughlin Avenue in Lutherville and instructed the owner to return with alternative designs.

Staff described the site as a 2‑story 1877 house with a non‑contributing former carriage house, and noted the proposed 18x50‑foot garage would sit just six feet from the existing carriage house and be visible from Locklin Avenue. Staff advised against the proposed location and scale and suggested alternatives such as a less‑visible placement, a smaller footprint, or an addition attached to the existing carriage house that would better respect materials and roof pitch. Two nearby neighbors testified, asking for a design that is more residential in scale and does not increase impervious surface; they also raised concerns about drainage and neighborhood character.

Commissioners agreed the proposed building looked out of scale and advised the owner to engage a designer and return with options more compatible with the carriage house and district. The commission voted to not approve the request as presented and to have the applicant return with revised designs.","Baltimore County LPC rejected the applicant’s proposed 18x50‑foot garage at 112 McLaughlin Avenue in Lutherville, citing scale, visibility and paving concerns; commissioners asked the owner to return with alternative designs that better relate to the existing carriage house and neighborhood.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6519181,"Commission approves revised rear addition and ramp for Glendon dental office",290,3005000,3295000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5374249-ccdd9f379dbfa051e8fb580d627efed0&start=3005&end=3295","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5374249-ccdd9f379dbfa051e8fb580d627efed0/thumbnail_3005000.jpg","/articles/6519181/Baltimore-County/Maryland/Commission-approves-revised-rear-addition-and-ramp-for-Glendon-dental-office","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6519181-a730d2e1377da1f2cb639c9e48cbcef2/orig.mp4?Expires=1773328866&Signature=B6gOEcsM64kVQSEVv66pxMfooGHsxjZyqWCxg3BCTURzPSmbzYEPNcaG6Eae4LoVL0fK-hBd-YkQqB7DPavJmzqd-ir99Izwa28q1aJTEhT2rQnUXY8TjxcbChJ1rUQsrhdZVzoTUTCVwIbG30gOGbFe4uQd0-3fH9K9WSk1X3RgiJVIJ6CRdutThVdhvN-AHBagBlHy96uZvgJzCWzHkjHg9V3iDaLW3kHlLVl5Wchg-qhfzMRQ1XKzFbTt3wR28Rwj2WSepQSuOQaZKayUHg1npvVafwHPd9fCBJYpy~i8aO4fznSKFRQFIxpjFT4YgY6Natn4DOm378k3TpAjcA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Baltimore County Landmarks Preservation Commission approved a revised design for a rear addition and accessibility ramp at the Glendon Bank Romet dental office, after the applicant reduced the addition’s setback and replaced an ADA lift proposal with a wood ramp.

Staff reminded the commission that an earlier proposal had been denied; the returning applicant reduced the addition’s west setback to 18 inches from the main structure and revised the east setback to roughly 4 feet. The applicant replaced the previously proposed ADA lift with a narrower wood ramp and black steel handrails. Windows and siding details are planned as wood‑clad double‑hung units and smooth‑texture hardy siding; the flat roof will be covered in EPDM rubber roofing. Staff recommended approval conditioned on hardy siding to match existing rear addition material and asked for more detail on the proposed awning.

Commissioners generally supported the revised plans but asked the applicant to confirm ADA ramp landings and turning radii during code review; several commissioners said minor ramp adjustments would be acceptable without a return to the LPC. The motion to approve was adopted by roll call.

Action: Certificate of Appropriateness issued with condition that siding match existing rear addition material and that the applicant supply additional ramp/awning detail consistent with building and ADA code.","After a prior denial, the commission approved a reduced rear addition and a wood ADA ramp with steel handrails for the Glendon Bank Romet dental office; commissioners requested more ADA detail for code compliance.",{"_33":100,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":101,"_41":102,"_43":103,"_45":104,"_47":105,"_49":106,"_51":107,"_53":108,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":109,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":110,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6519183,"Commission approves Perry Hall School alterations with material and location conditions",623,1545000,2168000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5374249-ccdd9f379dbfa051e8fb580d627efed0&start=1545&end=2168","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5374249-ccdd9f379dbfa051e8fb580d627efed0/thumbnail_1545000.jpg","/articles/6519183/Baltimore-County/Maryland/Commission-approves-Perry-Hall-School-alterations-with-material-and-location-conditions","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6519183-0bee9eb2d0a0b7bab5aaa1a2d7e7bde2/orig.mp4?Expires=1773328866&Signature=YQsw-8znubyUw6NJFLswlhnsi9HZAT617jiCN7oW8ke~nzT7UZTLHW7JZ9rRYsBogiEFVUIF9c2tn0GQB3JwZF-2JaAWzAiLHTjH1vUQ7uzjS1cHCor6M1605LNiJfAVMHArUcrJBrYs3IGtuf~xCEV0oUU0Q2fcu~7vFE7shbvHNZp-UzKM3fSSfA7VUOLO9G9HMO8qi5R-61bHRB1Rd2W3kK8R0Y7oGLIJwqdi3b39R4y0rCoeudPdscpK9jAI2AcnB6slcrYMzap8VPXa-~La2sgn59Q7z0dCVsoxesJsP02QLMPuvzs-R81d2Z4WMYSS-nZMTxu-F-giYFPnuw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Baltimore County Landmarks Preservation Commission approved proposed exterior changes at the former Perry Hall School, with conditions requiring specific materials and placement for the new openings.

Staff described the school (9317 Beller Road) as a 1928 Colonial Revival school recently moved from the preliminary to the final landmarks list. The applicants sought to convert a rear loading dock into a landing and replace a band of windows on the east elevation with a new entry and stairs. Staff recommended using a black metal panel instead of vinyl for a panel above the windows, moving the proposed side entry to match the location shown on submitted plans (around the corner), and specifying concrete landings with metal railings rather than wood.

Commission discussion focused on visibility and egress concerns. Commissioners agreed staff’s recommended material change and preferred the entry location around the corner to preserve the visible elevation; they also added a condition that all exterior landings be concrete with metal railings. Commissioner John Holman moved to approve staff recommendations; the motion carried on a roll‑call vote.

Action: Commission approved the proposed alterations with the modifications above.

Staff presented a history of the property and the nomination, saying the 4‑acre site at 3738 Butler Road is already a county landmark and a contributing resource in the Worthington Valley National Register historic district. Caitlin (staff member) told the commission the nomination argues the site meets National Register criteria A (association with patterns of religion and settlement) and C (architecture), noting continuous Episcopal worship on the site since about 1820 and a rebuilt Gothic Revival church dedicated in 1870. \"Staff recommends that the LPC recommend it for listing on the National Register,\" Caitlin said.

Commissioner John Holman moved to follow staff’s recommendation, calling the property “clearly eligible.” The motion was seconded and carried in a roll‑call vote. Commissioners praised the nomination’s research and the church’s intact Gothic features, including the stone walls, lychgate and associated rectory and graveyard. No public testimony or written comments were offered at the hearing; staff reported the property owners support the nomination.

The commission’s recommendation is an advisory step in the state and federal process: if Baltimore County and the Maryland Historical Trust agree, the nomination will proceed to the governor’s consulting committee and, if supported, will be forwarded to the National Park Service for final action.

Votes and formal action: The commission voted to recommend listing (motion by Commissioner John Holman; second recorded). Roll‑call recorded unanimous support (13 yes, 0 no).","Baltimore County Landmarks Preservation Commission voted to recommend St. John’s Church, Western Run for listing on the National Register of Historic Places, citing its post‑Revolutionary Episcopal history and Gothic Revival architecture.","actionData","errors"]
